I am still going through your tutorial, now "customizing JAWS" part. My custom finder gives me empty collection whereas direct query gives normal 27 rows. What is wrong here? --------------- client console------ artificialOrders = [] artificialOrders.size() = 0 --------------client code--------- Collection artificialOrders = orderHome.findArtificial(); println ("artificialOrders = " + artificialOrders); println ("artificialOrders.size() = " + artificialOrders.size()); ---------------direct query----------- select * from orderentity where 1=1 order by sessionId desc -----------------jaws.xml------------ <jaws> <enterprise-beans> <entity> <ejb-name>ClassBean</ejb-name> <finder> <name>findArtificial</name> <query>1=1</query> <order>sessionId DESC</order> </finder> </entity> </enterprise-beans> </jaws> ------------------------------------OrderHome.java-------------------- Collection findArtificial() throws RemoteException, FinderException; _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
